I didn't see it that way at all. Yeah she got a few shots . But I've never thought it was as excessive as ppl suggest. Adam got tons of shots. And lucky ppl do watch this or their would be no Adam Lambert haha. haha... i honestly watched for 7 years (AI2 to AI8) and never noticed any judge being this over exposed. Now, if they were panning over to Adam every other second then it would be quite OK Well in the auditions they really don't have any choice about it being about J'Lo, the contestants are doing that all on their own. And I don't see her doing anything to encourage it, she mostly seems like she'd like them to stop fawning over her. I'm happy with her, she's the Paula of the current show. Now during the live shows they do tend to show the judges a bit long, not that they haven't ever shown them, who can forget a pool of abdul.

We talk about all the ways that Adam engages with others and ends up charming them. The direct focus, the attentiveness, the mirroring of posture and speech patterns. Watching that video clip I noticed another trait. He laughs freely and easily. People like to think of themselves as being clever, witty, with a good sense of humor. Adam laughs at their jokes and quips. He gets really ticked. It makes others feel appreciated and creates a feeling of camaraderie. No, I don't think it is manufactured. Adam truly enjoys people and has a sunny, breezy attitude. It is most endearing. "He gets really ticked." -- do you mean "tickled?" Amazing what one letter can do to a word!

I can't believe this is happening! After 6 years of following Adam and being puzzled as to why the rest of the world can't see his phenomenal talent they are at last getting it, at least in the UK. Now I'm actually happy that Adam did not have great success right from the start. If he had reached superstar status from his first album he may not have had the time or inclination to devote so much time to Queen and we would never have got to hear him sing these gorgeous songs. It seems impossible for him to get better but every time he performs he does!! Success is so worth waiting for! There are still people to win over. One of my daughters told me the other day he was fading away!! She has no knowledge of his touring with Queen outside of NA or the NYE gig. So I pointed out that he was the most googled person in the UK for the first 2 days of this year. She then said well he needed Queen to make it and couldn't have achieved that success on his own. There may be truth in that but I can't wait for this new album with the proper promotion to take the world by storm and turn Adam into a legend. I'm almost embarrassed to repeat this but when I pointed out that no one else has the range to cover the Queen catalogue she suggested Sam Smith!!! She thinks his range is just as good. I must be a failure as a parent. I usually stay away from these "range" discussions because being a great vocalist is not all about range -- but why not show her the numbers: Sam Smith Tenor Vocal range: C3-G5 (2 Octaves 4 Notes) People (including me) love Sam's voice because he moves into his falsetto so seamlessly. He only has one studio album so this is it for now. He has a very interesting voice, there's an ease with his voice that's rather elegant and emotional. Amazing mixed voice. His transitions are sometimes seamless and his mix sounds so much like his falsetto at times it's uncanny.

(Diva Devotee for example) I believe the E2 is correct for right now, I bet his range increases in the next few years. *** Have your daughter read this.... www.divadevotee.com/2012/04/vocal-profile-adam-lambert.html Interesting, I enjoy listening to Sam Smith, but would never call has transition to falsetto seamless. It's very noticeable to me in his hit songs.
